LONDON -- Englands gamble on Andros Townsend paid off as the winger capped an impressive debut by scoring in a 4-1 victory over Montenegro on Friday that kept the host in control of its pursuit of World Cup qualification. Heading into the final round of matches in Group H, England has a one-point lead over Ukraine, which beat Poland 1-0, with both ensured of at least making the playoff to reach the finals in Brazil. With Ukraine expected to easily overcome bottom-place San Marino on Tuesday, England will have to beat Poland on Tuesday to qualify automatically. "The job is half done if we want to qualify direct," England coach Roy Hodgson said. England only came to life after the break at Wembley Stadium, when Wayne Rooney put the hosts in front and Montenegro midfielder Branko Boskovic turned the ball into his own net. It seemed like there would be an anxious end when Dejan Damjanovic pulled one back for the visitors but Townsend then scored and Daniel Sturridge netted from the penalty spot in stoppage time. Hodgson pulled off a surprise by naming Townsend in the starting lineup for his first cap, capping a whirlwind year for the Tottenham winger. Four months ago, Townsend withdrew from the squad for the European under-21s championship before receiving a one-month ban and a fine of 18,000 pounds ($27,000) for breaching betting regulations. But a strong start to the season with Tottenham saw Townsend force his way into the senior international fold. From the start Friday, the 22-year-old Townsend used his pace down the right flank to trouble the visiting defence. "It cant be easy for a young player making his debut," Hodgson said. "He played with calmness and composure." Although Montenegro began to crowd out Townsend he managed to pick out Frank Lampard, who set up Steven Gerrard as the pressure built from Hodgsons side. England was facing a goalkeeper who, like Townsend, recently served a ban for breaching integrity rules. Vukasin Poleksics two-year suspension was for failing to report that match-fixers approached him before a Champions League match. Poleksic didnt have a save to make until the 22nd minute, blocking Welbeck from a tight angle, and Joe Hart in the England goal was similarly quiet. Englands best opening was squandered just before halftime when Townsend had a low shot spilled and Rooney bundled the follow-up into the sidenetting. "It was a tough game at halftime, you saw how difficult to break down they were, and well organized," Hodgson said. But Townsend ensured England made the perfect start to the second half after charging down the right and whipping in a cross that was half-cleared. Welbecks resulting shot was parried but Rooney managed to scuff the rebound into the net in the 49th minute. It was the Manchester United strikers sixth goal in five qualifiers. Englands Kyle Walker was then booked for a shirt-tug and the right back is now suspended for Tuesdays finale. But luck turned back in Englands favour in the 62nd. A backheel from Sturridge released Welbeck on the left flank, and his cross was inexplicably turned into the net by Boskovic when under no pressure. England had chances to extend its lead through Sturridge and Welbeck, and seemed to be cruising when Montenegro pulled one back to ensure there would be an anxious end. Against the run of play, Dejan Damjanovic turned Fatos Beqirajs shot beyond Hart in the 72nd. But the two-goal lead was restored six minutes later. Townsend picked up ball near halfway line and ran through the defence before sending a swerving shot in off the right hand post. The three points were no longer in doubt, and the gloss was put on the win by Sturridges penalty after the Liverpool striker was brought down. In Kharkiv, the only goal was scored by Andriy Yarmolenko in the 64th minute, ending Polands qualification hopes. The Ukraine winger curved a left-footed shot from the centre of the box after being left alone by the Polish defence who instead risked intercepting Yevhen Konopolyankas cross. Air Jordan 4 Outlet .

PITTSBURGH -- A sharp Hyun-Jin Ryu and some clutch hitting enabled the Los Angeles Dodgers to overcome the absence of two top sluggers. Ryu pitched seven strong innings, Adrian Gonzalez reached base five times and Los Angeles beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 5-2 on Monday night. Ryu (11-5) joined Zack Greinke and Clayton Kershaw in making the Dodgers the first team in the majors with three 11-game winners. The left-hander allowed two runs and five hits with a walk and five strikeouts. "He had a good fastball, a good curveball and he threw his fastball to both sides of the plate," Los Angeles manager Don Mattingly said. "I thought he pitched really well and kept them off balance the whole time." Justin Turner had two RBIs and scored twice for the Dodgers, who snapped Pittsburghs six-game home winning streak. Pirates starter Edinson Volquez (8-7) had won four straight starts, tying his career high. Los Angeles played without right fielder Yasiel Puig (left hand) and shortstop Hanley Ramirez (left wrist) after both were injured when they were hit by pitches last weekend in St. Louis. Puig and Ramirez had X-rays in Pittsburgh that came back negative Monday. To compensate for their absence, Mattingly started Matt Kemp in right field -- his first appearance there since 2009 -- and Turner at shortstop. Turners start was his first since June 28, the day he sustained a strained left hamstring that put him on the disabled list for three weeks. Dee Gordon and Juan Uribe also had two hits apiece for Los Angeles, is two percentage points behind first-place San Francisco in the NL West. Brian Wilson and J.P. Howell combined to pitch a scoreless eighth before Kenley Jansen earned his 29th save in 32 opportunities. Andrew McCutchen had two hits and a run for the Pirates, who were coming off a home sweep of the Colorado Rockies. Turner scored on Kemps double in the third for the gamees first run.dddddddddddd. The following inning, Turners sharp liner wasnt handled by Pirates third baseman Josh Harrison and turned into a two-run double. Gonzalez followed with an RBI single to make it 5-0. That was plenty for Ryu, who retired 18 of the 20 batters he faced outside of Pittsburghs two-run fourth inning. "As a team we did a good job of putting good at-bats together when there were runners in scoring position," Gonzalez said. "We got those five runs in those two innings -- and Ryu on the mound made it enough, for sure." Volquez won five of his previous six starts and had a 0.90 ERA over 30 innings during his four-start winning streak. But he allowed 10 hits and three walks as the Pirates fell short of their first seven-game home winning streak in five years. "Everything was off today," said Volquez, who partially blamed the 11-day layoff between starts. "I wasnt executing my breaking balls. "Im just battling all the time. Fighting myself to find a rhythm, to execute pitches and stay in the game." Pittsburgh (52-47) also missed an opportunity to move seven games over .500 for the first time this season. "We battled and stayed in the game the best we could," manager Clint Hurdle said. "We just couldnt add on after the fourth." NOTES: Los Angeles catcher A.J. Ellis was hit in the head with a 78 mph pitch from Volquez in the second inning. The ball bounced off his helmet, and Ellis immediately ran to first and stayed in the game after being briefly examined by a trainer. ...
